Who needs an online checkout? Why is payment by cards a big problem today? Who can work without a CCP at all? Penalties and liability, how to avoid. Use of aggregators, agents and services: Yandex Checkout, Robokassa, Paypal. Who breaks the check, what are you responsible for, and what options are there? In the new edition of the law, the wording is as follows: “ Checkout is used for calculations". Calculations are:
This refers to cash and electronic means of payment. But barter and cashless payments are not taken into account. Electronic means of payment (ESP)... This is a means or method that allows a client of a money transfer operator (bank, aggregator) to compose and transmit an order for money transfers within the framework of non-cash forms of payments using the Internet, payment cards and other technical devices. Read more about the Federal Law of June 27, 2011 No. 161-FZ "On the National Payment System". Types of ESP:
Output: a cash desk is needed for everyone who accepts cash or money from electronic means of payment. When do you need to go to the online checkout?Those who accept payment from bank cards should go now. From July 1, 2017 the online cashier should be used by those who already have a cashier, who are on the main (OSNO) and simplified (simplified) taxation system. From July 1, 2018... those who use UTII, patents, provide services for BSOs, hard-to-reach enterprises according to the old register, vending machines and automatic terminals, who, according to the old version of the law, could not apply the CCP, will go to the online cash register. Hard-to-reach places (less than 10,000 people live) are approved by each region individually. These are pharmacies and medical centers in rural areas, religious institutions for services or literature in special places. Card payment problemAccording to the old law, most entrepreneurs could not even think that if an aggregator accepts money from cards for them, then they must punch checks. Therefore, everyone who connected Internet acquiring to themselves did not punch checks. Until December 31, 2013 a check is not needed for card payments in person, a check is also not needed for Internet acquiring (letter from the Ministry of Finance dated June 9, 2009 No. 03-01-15 / 6-293). From December 31, 2013 to February 1, 2017 the tax office demanded that the cashier's check be punched on the cash register in all cases (letter of the Federal Tax Service dated December 31, 2013 No. ED-4-2 / 23721). But most entrepreneurs didn’t hit their checks and thought it was unnecessary. From February 1 to June 30, 2017 a new edition of the law comes. The tax authorities and the Ministry of Finance issued joint letters, where they explained that everyone who accepts bank cards had to punch checks, and now nothing has changed. From July 1, 2017 everyone who accepts money from bank cards, incl. through aggregators on the Internet, must punch electronic cash receipts. From July 1, 2018 there is an opinion that the aforementioned letters do not comply with the law. If this is proven in court, then electronic cash receipts can be generated from this date. Who can work without a cash register?
If your business falls into one of these categories, you can safely work without a cash register. But at the request of the buyer, you must issue a document with full details and a description of what he paid for. Penalties for work without CCPFines are established by Art. 14.5 Administrative Code. All fines are divided into 3 types: a fine for an official, an individual entrepreneur and a legal entity.
The limitation period for fines for cash register machines is 1 year. Exemption from fineNot everyone knows, but it turns out that you can get rid of the issued fine. Those who voluntarily report to the Federal Tax Service about the violation of the use of the CCP may not pay the fine if four conditions are met:
The law does not limit how many times a tax violation can be recognized. In principle, you can confess as many times as you like. AggregatorsThe most famous aggregators: Cloud Payments, PayPal, Yandex.Kassa, Robokassa, Lifepay. Aggregators- these are companies that provide you with a service / service for accepting payments. They accept payments from a large number of sources and transfer money to your account minus their commission.
Why do aggregators get money for you, and you punch the cashier's check? All aggregators are credit organizations (abbreviation for NPO in the name, NCO). And according to 54-FZ, they do not punch checks. They do not carry out settlements, but only execute the money transfer order. And the calculations are carried out by you, your company. When receiving money from a buyer through a credit organization, the check is punched by the supplier of goods / services, that is, you. Agency schemeThere are a number of companies that are agents. For example, Robo.market, TimePad, JustClick. In 2017. TimePad has issued an instruction stating that he is a ticket agent for his clients (he is an LLC), so he will hit checks for you. RoboMarket is a company owned by Robokassa, but it acts on behalf of Business Element LLC, and it sells goods and services on its own behalf, makes settlements and knocks off all checks. JustClick is also a non-credit organization, it is your agent who does the settlements for you, so he has to punch checks. According to the Civil Code, the agent acts in your interests and at your expense (Article 1005 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation). He makes payments for you for the goods sold, services rendered. The agent punches the check, so the agent also gets a penalty for not issuing a check. If you work through an agent, the agent breaks the check. NextPay: work without checks and cash registerThe working scheme of Nexpey is presented below: The company came up with a scheme in which none of the participants need an online cash register. There is you and the client. Money passes between the client and you 2-3 working days. Transaction # 1- your client purchases electronic money from NextPay, which is not a sale of goods, i.e. no cashier's check is needed. Transaction # 2- Clients' money is kept in the RNKO-RIB bank. Transaction # 3- Next, your client gives an order to make a non-cash transfer of his money to your current account (according to your invoice). Checks don't come through here either. The disadvantage of such a scheme is that the money goes up to 3 days. And the date of payment is the date of the payment order. Those. Within 1-2 days, the money does not belong to you, and the payment is not considered complete. In theory, the client can withdraw his payment order back until the money reaches your account - they are not considered yours. All commissions for the transfer are paid by the client: 3% + 15 rubles. for each transfer. For example, from 1000r. the commission will be 45 rubles. Robobox: work without an online checkoutThe Robokassa company has released its original solution for trading without using an online checkout. Effective from July 1, 2017. You conclude an agreement with Robokassa and join the loyalty agreement. In the system, the commission for all transactions is paid by you (not the client, as was the case with NextPay).
For example, from 1000r. the commission will be 49 rubles. Let's summarize. The nuances of the work of "cashless schemes":
Cloud box office (box office rent)The term "cloud box office" usually means renting a box office. But there is also the placement of your own cash registers in the cloud. Cloud checkout- this is when you rent a cash register, a regular KKM, and place it in the data processing center (DC) from the provider of this cloud solution. Or you can buy your own checkout and transfer it to storage and installation in the supplier's data center. The cloud office also needs to be registered with the Federal Tax Service in your name via the Internet in your personal account. ConnectionLet's consider the example of the service "".
Renting a cash desk frees you up:
The price of renting an online ticket office for 1 year: Atol = 42,100 rubles, CloudPayments = 45,300 rubles. If you buy your own checkout and host it in the data center, it will be much cheaper. For example, placement with LIfePay costs 6000 rubles. in year. But consider here also the purchase of software + OFD. Responsibility to taxIn case of failures or breakdown of the cash register you answer(unless otherwise specified in the contract). If the cloud storage agreement states that the supplier will compensate you for fines, then the scheme is as follows: FTS finishes you -> the supplier will compensate you for the fine. When concluding an agreement with the data center, define in the agreement who is responsible for the malfunctions and breakdown of the cash register. You can prescribe financial responsibility in the contract. Those. if you have been fined, you can re-charge that fine to the supplier. But you cannot delegate things like suspension or disqualification. For example, there was a failure, and the amount of funds received and not broken through is more than 1 million, the activities of the LLC are suspended, the directors are disqualified. In this case, you cannot shift the disqualification and suspension to the director of the data center supplier. Those. no liability is transferred. Therefore, the data center often offers to rent 2 devices at the same time - in case the first breaks down. And if you have a large online store, you can put 2-3-4-5 machines so that they can punch checks without interruption. Yandex.CheckoutIf you have a Yandex.Checkout service connected and you have already bought an online checkout or are going to buy, Yandex will give you an extended protocol for integration. But such a protocol is provided by all other Russian aggregators. It turns out that Yandex is not offering us anything new. For more information about integration with the Yandex.Checkout service, you can visit the official. site. To date, Yandex.Checkout has not announced any other solutions. Any checkpoint has a built-in payment machine. According to the law, a checkpoint is an automatic payment device. In the postamat, settlements with the buyer take place automatically without the participation of an authorized person of the organization or individual entrepreneur. Check-in terminals, vending machines and other automatic devices that do not belong to credit institutions, must issue checks and transfer data to the OFD. If some devices belong to banks, they do not issue checks. All other checks are required to issue (according to 54-FZ). From July 1, 2017, in accordance with the amendments in the 54th Federal Law, in stores and other points of sale, incl. and in online stores, online cash registers must be installed, which transmit information about each purchase directly to the tax authorities. To do this, the electronic tape will need to be replaced with a fiscal drive (FN), connect the cash register to the network and conclude an agreement with the fiscal data operator (OFD), which will collect information on payments and transfer it to the Federal Tax Service. What does it mean?If earlier the process of buying through an online store looked like this: online payment by a buyer - a payment aggregator (Yandex.Kassa, Robokassa, etc.) - a current account, now online stores are required to issue checks (which must be knocked out at the time of payment) and send them to customers by email or phone. It will no longer be possible to withdraw money to the current account using the aggregator. An interesting innovation will be the requirement to apply a QR code on the check. The client can receive a QR code in an e-mail or on a real check, read it and see the full information about the payment. What to do?Aggregators have not yet offered their solution, so the only thing left for the owners of online stores is to buy or rent an online checkout. When paying by bank transfer to the company's current account, an online checkout is not needed. Installing an online cash registerThe most seemingly simple solution. But in fact, in addition to the cash register itself, you will have to acquire a cashier who will print and send receipts to customers immediately after online payment (and at night too!). Steps:
Cloud online checkout rentalIn this case, you do not need to buy a cashier and hire a cashier. This work will be done on the side of the cloud checkout. Steps:
If payment is accepted at the time of delivery, for example, when delivered by a courier, then the check must also be knocked out by the courier. What is the threat of non-compliance with the law?Fines for legal entities will range from 75% to 100% of the calculation amount, but not less than 30,000 rubles. Individual entrepreneurs and officials will pay 25-50% to the state treasury, but not less than 10,000 rubles. If you are selling services, not goods, then the Federal Tax Service gives you time until July 01, 2018. Despite the fact that the new changes have a number of positive aspects, for example, the frequency of inspections by the tax authorities will decrease; electronic checks will appear, which will replace printed ones; accounting for the proceeds of enterprises will become more transparent, which will exclude the possibility of hiding income and not paying tax for it; most likely, the application of the law in reality will be very difficult. And it is not at all excluded that something may change before July 01, 2017. Hello! Today we will tell you what online checkouts are for and present our review of online checkouts for online stores.

Review-comparison of online checkouts for online stores 4.8 (96.47%) 17 votesA cloud-based online checkout without a cash register is an ideal solution for online stores. A business entity does not need to buy a KKT, he simply leases it. The peculiarity is that you can rent not only equipment that can stand next to the seller or administrator of an electronic store, but also a virtual cash register. Another option is to purchase your own equipment with its subsequent placement in a data center (data processing center). Cloud online checkout rental: how it worksRented online cash registers must be registered with the Federal Tax Service. The user is the person who, in fact, will operate the device and punch through the device to receive payments. The cash register equipment must be registered in the name of the user. The procedure for connecting to a cloud CCP consists of the following steps:
Renting an online cash register in the cloud does not guarantee the absence of technical problems with the equipment. Therefore, it is recommended to stipulate in the contract in advance who is responsible for the breakdown of cash registers, for interruptions in its functioning. The process of operating a rented virtual cash register is not much different from working with stationary equipment, the main difference is that all payments are made in a non-cash form (bank cards or through electronic payment services). Online checkout (cloud service) implements registration of payments according to the following algorithm:
For such a quick exchange of data, a good Internet connection is not enough, it is necessary to integrate between the website of the online store and the virtual CCP. A cloud-based online checkout for an online store is selected taking into account the estimated volume of daily transactions. This parameter is used to estimate the number of devices that need to be purchased or rented. Each cash register should receive no more than 2 receipts per second. The transaction limit for fiscal accumulators must be taken into account. Cloud service "Online Cashier" for an online store is offered by various companies, including manufacturers of cash registers:
The cost of services is calculated monthly for each piece of equipment. You will have to pay an average of 1,500 rubles for one cash register. per month. Fiscal accumulator is paid additionally. Cloud online checkout: pros and consThe advantages of rented cloud checkouts are that they do not take up space in the company's office or warehouse, and the seller does not have to worry about power outages. The company does not need to hire a cashier or replace the fiscal drives on its own. The lessor can advise on the registration of equipment with the Federal Tax Service, guarantees the uninterrupted operation of devices are provided. The advantages of renting a cash register include the ability to automatically control the opening and closing of each work shift. In the personal account on the lessor's website, the company can use a number of additional services - for example, view detailed statistics on transactions for each cash register. The cost of the OFD services is included in the rental price. The user does not need to spend money on the purchase of special software. But the cloud-based online cash register management service is inconvenient because, in terms of total costs over one or several tax periods, renting can be more expensive than purchasing your own equipment. Another disadvantage is that there is no possibility of issuing checks on paper. |
